My brother just MSN'd me to let me know that a large package has arrived at home for me with Amazon markings all over it. At first I was rather confused, but then remembered my Amazon wishlist. It seems, according to the list that three items have been bought for me!

Given that I have yet to direct my parents to the list, I can only assume that this means that someone who reads this blog, ie one of my readers, has not only gone to the wishlist, but has also bought me something from it. Or in fact, three people have. Or one person has bought three things. Or one person has bought one thing and one person has bought two. Or something.

The point I am trying to make, beyond the fact that I am somewhat surprised, is that I am extremely grateful to whoever has so kindly gone to the trouble of getting me something. I feel very appreciated :-)

Obviously, I won't know who and what until my birthday on 10th of June, but whoever you are I promise to love you forever. I shall report back and send out proper thanks on the day itself, but I felt I needed to write about this now because I'm most very excited!
